Hi,

I need to print some reports in character mode (Generic/Text Only Driver) which use accentuated characters (the language is Portuguese). I am doing some tests with an Epson LX 300 printer. According to the printer documentation I could use some escape commands that would change the Character Table (I am intending to use PC 850 - Multilingual). I am using the following commands:
??? CHR(27)+'(t'+CHR(0)+CHR(0)+CHR(3)+CHR(0)     && Changes Char Table to PC-850
??? CHR(27)+'t'+CHR(0)                           && Selects the char table 0
The original charset is changed but the result isn't the desired (the characters are changed but are not the correct ones)

Thanks!
